A microservice that does micro things.

make

You need to be running RancherOS v0.4.4 (all kernel patches are not yet fully upstreamed). Also ensure that TCMU is enabled:

modprobe target_core_user
mount -t configfs none /sys/kernel/config

Then run

./bin/longhorn replica --size 10g /opt/volume
./bin/longhorn replica --size 10g --listen localhost:9505 /opt/volume2
./bin/longhorn controller --frontend tcmu --replica tcp://localhost:9502 --replica tcp://localhost:9505 vol-name

That will create the device /dev/longhorn/vol-name

Each replica uses three consequetive ports. By default they are 9502, 9503, and 9504. They are used for controll channel, data channel, and sync communication respectively.

List replicas

longhorn ls

Remove replica

longhorn rm tcp://localhost:9502

Add replica

longhorn add tcp://localhost:9502
